Rise of the Italti

The blood in Ævyn’s veins was Sythlia’s own, an infinite source of divine authority over physical reality.  Upon its spill, the will of mortals tainted the divine plan and thus was created arcana that would forever more exist in Sythlia’s realms.

A pulse of arcane energy surged through all worlds and ripped through all living things.  In some cases, the newly formed arcane magics infused with the living, changing them beyond mere mortals.

These italti grew in immense power.  Corrupted by the very touch of death, they were selfish beings who began to enslave all around them.  War erupted with the new divine energies.
